The Awesomeness of Archives and Mashups
zomg. You have to click through and look at these pictures. Please come back, though. I’ll wait.
Okay, did you see them? Weren’t they awesome?!
Seeing these pictures made me think about mashups again. I often talk about mashups in my lib100 classes. They’re a good tool for helping people think about how technology changes things and copyright. I show a few demos and that’s about it. There aren’t many that I’ve found to be useful for teaching my content.
But can you imagine how much more meaningful a history class would be if looking at those photos? An architecture class? How would see...

Hurt Wit Chu: 3 Favorite New Mashups
I've posted about mashup artist Pheugoo before (9/07). Here's a new favorite of mine: Johnny Cash covering Nine Inch Nails meets Queens of the Stone Age (the video's a still image; embedding so you can hear the song)You can download the mp3 of "Hurt Wit Chu" free at Pheugoo's site.BRAT mashups are new to me (and available as free downloads at BRAT Productions Mashup Page).

Pixars Inception Mash Up!
Direktlink YouTube
Wer «Inception» noch nicht gesehen hat, sollte sich mal diesen Trailer-MashUp von «Inception» und «Up!» anschauen. Großartig. Ich war schon begeistert, als ich vorgestern «Inception» sah. Aber das hier ist auch ganz großes Kino.
[via Gizmodo, dort auch in den Kommentaren der Hinweis auf weitere mashups, etwa Toy Story 3 Inception Mashup]

Library Mashups
mashups zijn webapplicaties die de inhoud van twee of meer bronnen samenbrengen tot één nieuwe, originele toepassing. Slim gebruikt kunnen ze bibliotheekwebsites en -catalogi meer dynamiek, een grotere zichtbaarheid en betere functionaliteit geven. Populaire mashups maken gebruik van kaarten – denk aan Google Maps – of remixen foto’s, video’s, RSS feeds, enz.
In Library mashups laat Nicole C. Engard een schare gerenommeerde early adopters aan het woord. Jenny Levine, Darlene Fichter, Tim Spalding, John Blyberg, Karen A. Coombs, Joshua Ferraro en vele anderen implementeerden voor hun bibliotheken ...

A New Report From McAfee Labs: “Social Networking Apps Pose Surprising Security Challenges”
3 Paragraphs from the Report:
Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, and LinkedIn—oh my! If we’re not using these services ourselves or hearing about them in the media, our friends, colleagues, and children remind us each day of their existence. Although Web 2.0 may be a buzzword we all love to hate, media-rich web applications that allow information sharing among users are here to stay and growing in popularity. An article written in October 2009 (so it’s clearly out of date) on the size of Facebook’s data center states Facebook stores approximately 80 billion photos and serves up approximately 600,000 photos per second—ma...

Test accounts for RDA Online were set up and log information sent around a couple of weeks ago. Have you tried it? The offer is open until the end of August.

Mashup of US migration patterns
Here's a nice little mashup from Forbes. They created an interactive map visualizing migration data into and out of US counties based on 2008 IRS data*. The black lines represent people moving to a certain place, the red lines are people moving out. TONS of people moving to SF (where I live). No wonder I have to stand in line so long for my strawberry balsamic ice cream fix from BiRite Creamery!
*I went looking for said IRS migration data and found that:
